Faith, Sacrifice, Honor

I read this book years ago and was instantly captivated by it. It’s not an overly complicated novel but highlights what it is to be willing to literally bleed for something important to one and take a chance on oneself. I may be biased since I found several relatable aspects of this book to my own experiences but nonetheless this is a classic. I thought the narrator did a a great job as well and I appreciated the accent. Folks need inspiration in this world, be it within themselves or as witness to someone else’s perseverance. Take a chance on yourself. Well done Sir Arthur.
